Scientists discovered the real cause of aging: “you can avoid”

Man’s condition rapidly deteriorate, if not to support the health of the main body

Scientists from Britain conducted a major study among patients. They found bad habits that cause premature aging of the brain. A scientific paper published by the European society of cardiology.

A group of doctors led by Dr Simon Cox from the University of Edinburgh took advantage of the country’s largest Bank biological data. They examined MRI scans taken 9, 772 thousands of volunteers aged 44 to 79 years. And then compared the brain the addictions of the patient.

As it turned out, the aging brain is strongly influenced by Smoking, diabetes, obesity, and high blood pressure. These factors reduce the amount of gray matter composed of cell bodies of neurons, capillaries and glial cells. In addition, because of the bad habits it reduces the volume of the brain and deteriorate the long processes of nerve cells (white matter). All this causes premature aging of the body.

As the scientists write, the patient with the most advanced cases, the brain volumes were 3% less from normal. And in the white matter was noticed one and a half times more damage than the relatively healthy person.

This outcome can be avoided by simply taking care of your health. You must give up Smoking and junk food. Also, you should watch your excess weight, avoiding obesity. Then the brain will age at the normal speed and will serve the owner much longer.

Informed nutritionist Jessica Cording told how to protect the brain from the harmful effects of computers. As it turned out, the blue light of the monitor affects the health. The medic advised three ingredients that will help to restore the eyesight and the brain. It is the carotenoids zeaxanthin, lutein and astaxanthin.

They are found in colorful fruits and vegetables. These compounds are unique in that they cross the blood-brain barrier — in fact, reach the eye and create a protective environment. Sources of zeaxanthin — green vegetables such as broccoli, spinach and cabbage. And the red astaxanthin can be found in seafood. For example, the shrimp.

Recall that scientists have discovered how depression affects the brain.
